Depression Counselor

Thomas Blume, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

It is normal for people to have moments when the challenges of living seem to be overwhelming--when we doubt our own ability to persist in the face of opposition and/or failure. I use the word depression to describe the many ways in which lives become organized around self-doubt, loss of energy, and anticipation of failure. My Identity Renegotiation perspective helps people reorganize the stories they tell themselves--and the ways they relate to others--to overcome doubt and find hope, potential, and promise.

Depression can have many causes. I will explore with you the emotional, physical, relational, historical and spiritual sources that may relate to the depression you are experiencing. Together we will create a treatment plan to help restore hope, peace and joy in your life. For many with depression, there is a history of unresolved grief and loss. We can look at Grief Recovery steps as a possible plan for addressing depression. Call 248-929-5354 today.

Thomas Cliff, JD, LMSW

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Whether it is a sense that something is not quite right, or heightened irritability, or a sense of hopelessness and exhaustion, the experience of depression needs attention.
When self-harm is a risk, the overwhelming concern is for safety, getting the client into care, for example, an emergency room.
In treatment the starting point for understanding depression is the simple question, "Why am I feeling this way?" Whatever technique the therapist employs, trust between client and therapist is the key to finding answers. My work attends to the client's story, the two of us working together to trace the roots of the troubling feelings. Referral for medication can be important.

Depression Counselor

Laura Mindell, MA LPC NCC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I am a psychotherapist who understands life can feel like a daily struggle. No one should have to endure these feelings alone. As a professional counselor, I compassionately listen and support clients as well as offer a therapeutic relationship that provides clients the opportunity to emotionally move forward and bring a healthy balance back into their lives. It is possible to heal, gain a sense of well-being, restore hope, and rekindle happiness even during the most challenging times. Clients that experience less depression often feel more relaxed, increased energy, less stressed, motivated, experience satisfaction in relationships, and have an easier time coping with life difficulties.

Stephanie Nofar, MA, LPC, CAADC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Depression is a TREATABLE illness. Let's get that out of the way! I know that depression can make you feel helpless, but you are not helpless. Taking the first step is asking for help. There is no “one size fits all” treatment that cures depression so a client should not expect immediate results. It is important to be realistic about your symptoms and your goals. Treatment takes time and commitment from both of us. You are not alone.

Clinical Therapist

Depression can be hard to recognize, presenting it self as fatigue, irritability, anger, guilt, anxiety, loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed, etc. It can be quite debilitating as you find it difficult to motivate yourself to do daily activities of life. Depression can be linked to unhealthy thoughts. With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, studies show how one thinks impacts one's mood and behavior. I will help you identify depressive thoughts. Together, we will work to challenge and replace those thoughts to improve your mood and overcome depression.

Depression Counselor

Joe Kort, Ph.D., MSW

Licensed Social Worker

It is said that depression is anger turned inward. This is often true. It is also true that depression can be biological and physiological. We assess your depression through a depression inventory and identify what is best for you in terms of talk therapy or medication and/or both. Untreated depression leads to it getting worse causing folks to act on their suicidal thoughts and behaviors. It doesn't have to get that far. Help is available.

Depression Counselor

Robert Flewelling, Psy.D. LP

Licensed Psychologist

Depression is one of the most misunderstood of all the emotional difficulties. Often it is described as a medical condition, due to chemical imbalances in the brain that require treatment through medication. And while this is sometimes true, in the vast majority of the cases depression is a natural condition, in response to stressors and unresolved problems in life. In most instances, medication treats the symptoms of depression, but not the causes and thus the factors causing depression will remain, untreated and dependent on drugs to keep them at bay. Good therapy successfully treats the causes of depression, thus relieving the symptoms of depression. It is work, but healing is permanent.

Stephanie Sachs, LPC

Licensened Psychotherapist

Are you or a loved one depressed? Then you probably realize just how hard it is to shake depression, once it takes hold. Depression cheats everything; it cheats you, your loved ones, the people trying to help you. It lowers immune functioning and causes physical pain. It hurts every domain of your life and has a ripple effect that reaches into all of your experiences, your idea of self, your ability to hope, or to think, or be creative, or even love! Whether you just don't enjoy things like you used to or don't enjoy anything, if you struggle with depression, you are on a slippery slope, because depression will cloud your judgment! Here, two minds are definitely better than one: Reach out...

Depression Counselor

Franklin Sollars, and Associates

Licensed Psychologist

Treatment of depression is designed to help patients explore the full range of their emotions, including feelings they may not be aware of. By making the nonconscious elements of their life a part of their present experience, therapy helps people understand how their behavior and mood are affected by unresolved issues and unconscious feelings. This can lead to a reduction in depression and an increase in positive feelings.
